, Hatice Cengiz, and DAWN sued the crown prince, his top aides and others in Washington federal court over their alleged roles in Khashoggi’s killing. Saudi Arabia says the prince had no direct role in the slaying.
Biden in February 2021 had ruled out the U.S. government imposing punishment on Prince Mohammed himself in the killing of Khashoggi, a resident of the Washington area. Biden, speaking after he authorized release of aon Prince Mohammed’s role in the killing, argued at the time there was no precedent for the U.S. to move against the leader of a strategic partner.
“It’s impossible to read the Biden administration’s move today as anything more than a capitulation to Saudi pressure tactics, including slashing oil output to twist our arms to recognize MBS’s fake immunity ploy,” Whitson said. Upholding the concept of “sovereign immunity” helps ensure that American leaders in turn don’t have to worry about being hauled into foreign courts to face lawsuits in other countries, the State Department said.
We need a formal US response, rejecting him. Silence sends the wrong message in a democracy.
..hepoy 30... ..XAVIAR...NDu..
So I guess state sponsored terrorism/murder is now OK? What about all the noise that Putin is a murderer and should be stood up before the International Court?
Biden has nothing to do with this. We need oil. Period.
Some say Trump sold Isreal secrets to Saudi for money. That's from reliable source.
So sad USA bows and kisses Saudi leader ass!
🤬😡🤬😡 Wtf
عرفتها منذ البداية ،حضر السيسي و بن سلمان ،خسرت قطر ،يا والله احوال.
Biden wants him protected from the ordering a murder of an American citizen? WTF?
No one is above the law unless you are in a high office. Hypocrisy is an American past time.
Law is only okay for second class civilians
Evidence proved he ordered the murder of Jamal Khashoggi. The only reason the Biden Admin is letting him off the hook is oil. If the U.S. would only move forward on utilizing alternate fuel sources it wouldn’t be dependent upon any country. The U.S. would be energy independent.
Wtf, JoeBiden? MBS (Mr. Bone Saw) is a murderer.
Now they'll never get rid of him without drastic measures.
Princes can murder.
Yea this sounds about right.
Disgusting
Biden wants to keep the door open so he can go beg for oil.
Because as soon as the Republicans are sworn in he's heading there permanently.
So Biden & His Puppeteer'$ Are Protecting Saudi Murderer's Now! I Wonder How Much Money They're Getting Paid For This Atrocity Yet They Continue The Witchhunt Against President Trump! This Is Bull$HiT! 🤬🐕🏜🇺🇸
Sounds like they’re working out some deals behind the scenes. Ok, but I hope they’re good ones. Like selling out TFG?
SaudiEmbassyUSA has the crown Prince lost weight because he looks great in this photo
Biden says citizens of Saudi Arabia can hunt Americans for sport. Film at eleven.
Money and oil walks.
Weak
He is the prime minister, of course he will have immunity and this is not related to the Khashoggi’s case, because the evidence didn't prove the involvement of Saudi government. The truth is the Saudi government arrested indicted and imprisoned them
Nothing should shield that murderer from prosecution.
They aren’t moving to shield him, that’s the law. The actual outrage should be on holding the Saudi government responsible, not on them pointing out facts that are well established facts.
What is abnormal here ? I think US presidents have legal immunity, do not they ?
امريكا و الغرب بحكومتهم و اعلامهم وسياسييهم يدافعون عن رجل شارك مع الارهابيين هل انتم من صنع الارهاب ⁉️ دائما وابداً مهما طال الباطل و الظلم فأن الحق هو المنتصر في النهاية 🟡 لا تنسون FreeAssangeNOW
MrTooDamnChris Lol
Who else can thery kill for free, Biden?
Grandpa earpiece is struggling
Lol
The crown prince is a royal punk.
AFTER Biden called him a “LIAR”! And then they threw Saudi sand in his face when he asked for more oil
nObOdY’s aBoVe tHe lAw 😵💫😵💫
Oil wins again. Oil before people.
What a load of evasive crappola. The collective leaders of this world have little interest in holding evil to account.
Blood on everyone’s hands
Machine men with Machine mines an Machine hearts
Hope it’s worth it in cheap gas and heat this winter for Ukraine
If he were Noriega or some Caribbean leader, he’d be in prison, but, since he’s sitting on oil, he can kill anyone he wants.
His lipstick matches his scarf
Shameful.
Gee whiz, Biden, like Trump & Putin, you are fist bumping murderous Mohmmed bin Salman and granting him immunity and impunity to murder American residents and citizens. Better be careful. It logically follows that he would also have Head of State immunity to bump you off.
As long as we are held hostage by fossil fuels, these are the odious deals western leaders must make.
The journalist was part of terror org. Muslim brotherhood is exactly that
Crown Prince = license to kill.
Fuck that.
No support.
Not if he knew it was happening & did nothing.
First of all, Fuck this
Biden wants oil Biden wants oil :)
Really disappointed in this abandonment of our values.
Not a good time for US citizens. Biden will sell your sol for oil.
Should anyone be protected for killing someone? Should anyone be protected for stealing secret government documents? Justice has been compromised in so many ways!
The only planes to fly on 911 were Saudi, what is it money oil or fear?
Hah! How ironic. But criminal probes continue for our own ex President for things like stealing copies of documents.
wrong, just wrong . no excuse.
Of course, that’s how you keep a gallon less than $3.
There’s another campaign promise broken. FJB
Like The Crown Prince gives a hoot on what The White House Says!
?
🙄
Still trying to kiss ass in order to get that oil, eh Joe? 🤡
Imagine the outrage if Trump would have done this.
Beyond horrified by this decision.
I knew he didn’t do it. He was set up by US enemies. They’ve always been jealous of our relationship with the Saudis
he's suave and de-boner but he's still a murderer---wouldn't trust him in bed no matter how hot he is.
BidenWorstPresidentEver
How many people aren't gonna understand diplomatic immunity in the comments?
Seriously? That’s a shame.
The word ‘shielding’ is misleading. The Biden administration never said he was innocent, in fact the opposite. However because Saudi Arabia named him as Prime Minister he automatically gets diplomatic immunity and can’t be sued. The law should be changed.
Has any Iraqi tried suing Dick Cheney?
oregon_report Disgraceful. Our oil dependency is a murderous franchise
The Democrat Party wants to hold Trump for his crime, because according to them, no on is above the law. Yet because the Prince has oil that we want, well maybe not so fast. Sounds political and hypocritical to me.
BoneSaw
Nope.
What a relief. For a minute I was worried that Biden was going to start enforcing laws... :: whew ::
The Crown Prince has nothing to do with Khashoggi murder, and all perpetrators who were involved in the murder has been punished by the Saudi law, the justice has been served!
We've (Americans) been the Bad Guys for awhile now.
Restoring the soul of America?
Wtf is that bullsh-t?!
“Lower the oil prices for the midterms and I’ll get you off the hook on your murder of Khashoggi” - President Biden That’s what it looks like.
Power holds can do ANYTHING and never be held accountable as long as we need them. If not we would start a whole war because they aren’t nice to their people. Then the same administration trying to sell Ukrainian wars as humanitarian 😂🤣🙄
I am speechless.
Disgraceful.
Man WHAT
I don't have any faith left ... For me all hope is gone ...I will never forgive POTUS JoeBiden for doing this!!!
Things would be different, if it affected our access to their oil!!
All Heads of State enjoy immunity while in office.
How dare they! Bloody murderers!!
The wicked accept bribes in secret to pervert the course of justice. Proverbs 17:23 You must show no pity for the guilty! Your rule should be life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot. Deuteronomy 19:21
Smells like a cover up……chase the $
If only the US and North America were energy independent. If only there were places over here with oil? If only?
you posted this exact tweet yesterday
The golden rule, those with the gold make the rules.
Bull-Sh-t!!!
Gross
Um, not ok!!😒
Wait what
🤮
But the High office of President doesn’t protect you from office stationary mishandling 👏👏👏
Ridiculous
Oil over morals wins every time.
الاعلام الغربي مزدوج المعايير الاعلام الغربي يدافع عن ارهابي لمده 5-6 سنوات لكن الحق دائما ينتصر بالنهاية و ينهزم الباطل الاعلام الغربي يدعم ويصنع الارهاب
They hated him for it.
Well THATS effed up
Had to keep those gas prices down before the midterms.. don’t be naive folks
As well he should
BigGuy 👴🏼🍦
Umm... Biden, is corrupt.
Disgraceful sellout over oil, yet Biden continues to suppress Cuba.
Just imagine if Trump did this
They got away with the twin towers, now this. More to come
Hmmm...interesting
OK. So the high post should protect Putin? Money rules the world. :(
Nokware ?
Parallel Universe: Trump Administration: Immunity Liberals: OMG, what a fascist piece of shit. Biden Administration: Immunity Liberals: Well we need oil so I'm okay with it
Disgusting...
OARichardEngel Ridiculous ,should be held accountable. No different than Trump getting away with what he has done ,to date .
NOTE: It does NOT matter, here on Earth, how dismissive men are when others commit heinous atrocities against others. The MOST important fact is, when we die, the justice God renders will be seven-times worse in Hell! That is BIBLE and the QURAN! He will NOT escape justice!
POTUS JoeBiden I strongly disagree with this. If your administration is going on record to say MBS is above US law due to his position then this argument could be used to shield Trump from prosecution. Walk this back.
But nothing can shield the Saudi Arabia's crowned dick from himself!!
OARichardEngel So it was state-sponsored killing of a US resident? That would be war!
Oof.
Biden setting precedence for Hunter.
Bad look by the US.
The upper class can literally do anything they want.
What's the big deal here? The US kills people all the time, China kills people all the Time, Russia. He worked for an American News outlet so he's deified?
POTUS this is wrong
Why? Could it be so more weapons can be sold to the Saudis benefiting the military industrial complex? Are they that important of an ally? Apparently, they're more important than an American citizen being tortured to death.
Soul for oil 🤮
I don't like it but I understand politically
O wtf
If this is true it is a very weak signal to ruthless dictators everywhere. Not to mention it is just plain wrong! POTUS WHCOS WhiteHouse
OARichardEngel What ever happened to 'no one is above the law'? Totally disagree with this declaration.
We should still attack Saudi for 9/11 alone
Please sir can I have cheap oil for my man baby small pee pee truck bros ?
Setting precedence for when Biden decides to have a journalist murdered?
Well, do we want accountability, or cheaper gas? I think 99% of Americans want the gas.
Diplomatic immunity. This isn't the Biden administration's declaration. This is something most people have known. Turkey knew it, at the time Khashoggi was killed. The U.S. knew it. The crown prince was legally untouchable. Which DOESN'T make him innocent!
I would love someone to explain why international law gets to override us.
It’s just a financial situation about a Law Suite & not to bring him into America for prosecution. Set up the Headline like Biden was shielding the Prince from a Murder Charge. Saudi Arabia, China, and Russia are among the countries with no U.S. extradition treaties.
So basically the Saudi Crown Prince has a LICENSE TO KILL AMERICANS!
Biden gives a free pass to the murderer of an American citizen? For oil?
How many people that were involved in 911 were arrested by America. Not One.
always say the headline is not the story. If I excape to Saudi Arabia can America go into Saudi Arabia & bring me back. NO America can NOT. Saudi Arabia, China, & Russia are among the countries with no U.S. extradition treatie. But that Little Fact is buried deep into the story
So JoeBiden is saying that the Saudis should be allowed to get away with the barbaric, evil murder of a US resident journalist Khashoggi who criticised the regime, and they support these evil people?
And that is how the real world works... he is untouchable. We are simply pawns who if they want can have us in our houses again for a cold. Yes, it's really that simple. USA just gave a pass right infront of our eyes and we cant do a damn thing but watch & accept it.
What the F…
Yeah... he's sooo not involved at all
Um what? 😲
Good thing they don't have the final say so.
I almost don't care anymore. This world is stone crazy. Who owns the world? This action should answer that question.
Sounds about right. Similar application to Hunter Biden + the Big Guy (whoever that is). Now, in 6 months, you'll be hearing about the new 'Saudi collusion' Blue-Anon conspiracy theory from Hillary Clinton + Adam Schiff. What a refreshing change Russian collusion ! 🤣
US has the courage to only go so far when it comes to the Saudis. Have you noticed the absolute silence by the Republicans on this news.
cowards
wtfh outrageous beyond words
For all the people complaining Biden is weak or The fix is in. He's... Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince. Every day for the last 6 years people shouted 🗣 ✨You Can't Charge A Sitting President If you can't charge a sitting President A sitting Crown Prince is off limits as well
What the fuck
Role? He fkkn ORDERED the hit.
True colors right there....true colors.
So, if you’re a corrupt, Godless murderer who mocks Islam, it’s fine as long as you are a royal Saudi. Got it. I wonder how the families of those executed in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for far less than murder feel about this. Betrayal
Abhorrent decision POTUS WHCOS
Sort of like James Bond's license to kill, but for oligarchs? And what will be the moral ground to object to Putin in the future when they accuse him of the same?
Nobody is above the law, except when it is convenient for the administration.
Dude is whiter than I am.
WTF!
“It’s a big club and you ain’t in it.”
Ass kiss much?
Pres. Biden is wrong in shielding the mastermind who ordered the killing of Washington Post's top journalist JK! If he dared to use his power, the King of Saudi Arabia would have replaced this murderer Crown Prince! Another reason why Pres. Biden isn't good enough to run again!
You’re lame. I’m sure they said it probably would because of that if they were asked that question, but they didn’t “declare it” and they don’t want that. It’s not their decision. So stop trying to stir the pot and create chaos just bcuz you’re trying to get clicks!
Excuse me?
shameful
Is this an example of ' Money Talks' ?
Saved that one for after the election.
🐮 💩
Biden is weak
